10 Days until the Presidential Election - November 4, 200888 days until Inauguration Day - January 20, 2009

6 More Republicans break the ranks with John McCain as he continues to slam President Bush, claiming that he is not President Bush nor does he support him or his policies even though he voted the same as Bush did 95 percent of the time. They are Arnie Carlson, Bill Weld, CeeCee Goldwater, Christopher Hitchens, Scott McClellen and Colin Powell. It appears that the next 10 days will seem like an eternity for John McCain. It is the opinion of both Republicans and Democrats alike that John McCain has already lost the election. While he continues to struggle as virtually every poll now shows, some reaching double digit differences, Barack Obama has taken a 2-day break from the campaign to visit his grandmother in Hawaii, who is now gravely ill after falling and breaking her hip. Meanwhile the Vice-Presidential candidates from both sides continue to stump the trails in Republican states that John McCain and the Republican party should have won easily, but now looks like the Democrats are taking control, one by one. As a resident and registered Democrat in the state of Texas, I would be thrilled to see Barack Obama win Texas, and that is now not to far out of the question. With still 10 days to go, the continued trend by Republicans to leave their candidate should continue. The three clips below highlight the newest 6 Republicans now to walk away from supporting John McCain.
